There's nothing with your game or account that is preventing you from appearing on our search. When you are trying to rank for "topic" based searches, there is a lot more competition, and the search UI isn't the greatest for that. We try to push people into the browse page with a tag for topic based browsing. Search at the moment works best for direct title matches. I just added an official "Soccer" tag to make it easier to find from search.

Regarding searching by your name, search works by your username, not your display name: https://itch.io/search?q=oliver+benedens

Hope that explains what's going on.

That's dumb

People don't know his username, they only know his display name
You should be able to search both its username and display name

(EDIT : I searched for "Wasplay" and I found myself and my game, so there's something wrong with him)

@beggigames - whether this is useful to you or not I don't know, but I just tried a search for "hyperactive" - your game was 2nd in the list -  and "soccer" - your game was 19th.  Not surprisingly it was the first game that came up when I searched for "hyperactive soccer" specifically.  

I'll give your game a try when I can, I like the idea of these quick manic matches! :-)
